Jena,
Keep talking. The best time to talk is when you really don't feel like it. Build a support structure. James idea of checking to see if your college has a support group is an excellent idea. You are not alone, you might be surprised how many people that you have right there at your college that are in the same boat as you. Keep sharing with us too. There's some wonderful people here that can help you. There are some ADs that have an activating effect that might assist with your fatigue, Wellbutrin comes immediately to mind but there are others. You might talk to your doc about it. My e-mail is at the top of this page if you ever need to talk.
Please let us know how things are going for you. We're pullin' for ya!
Hugs,
Greg> > > I start my second year of college in 2 weeks...my freshman year was a horrible experience for me, because I was battling with annorexia and severe depression. I slept most of the time, never went to class, made no friends because I never left my room...and I start school again in 2 weeks and am so scared that Im going to fall back into that. I don't know what to do...Im on a new med (Remeron)that is working for me although I am tired ALL the time...and Im living at home now going to community college so things are going to be a little different, but do any of you have any advice on how I can keep myself from slipping back into that hell
